This old town's been home long as I rememberThis town's gonna be here long after I'm goneEast side, West side--give up, or surrenderBeen down,But I still rock on...

Oh, and this townIs my town, alright?Love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause I'm gonna stand and fightThis town, is my townShe's got her ups and downsBut love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause this is my town

This old town is where I learned about lovin'This old town is where I learned to hateThis town, buddy, has done its share of shovin'This town taught meThat it's never too late

Oh, and this townIs my town, alright?Love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause I'm gonna stand and fightThis town, is my townShe's got her ups and downsBut love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause this is my town

Oh, and this townIs my town, alright?Love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause I'm gonna stand and fightThis town, is my townShe's got her ups and downsBut love or hate it, it don't matter'Cause this is my town
